Nuclear power has the safest track record of any major energy source per terawatt-hour, yet public perception remains stuck in the Chernobyl era. The genie granting the wish with a casual "It is done" followed by "Nothing's changed" is painfully accurate. Despite decades of engineering improvements and safety protocols that make modern reactors practically meltdown-proof, we're still treating nuclear energy like it's wearing a ski mask and holding a chainsaw. Meanwhile, fossil fuels continue their atmospheric crime spree with barely a peep from the public. The irony would be delicious if it weren't cooking the planet.
